Convert "shutdown_after" into a poison system #47

Closed brinchj closed 8 years ago

After seeing an unrecoverable error a process becomes poisoned instead of crashing (includes the hash index, as its state is complicated).

Poisoned processes by default rejects messages (but may later support flush and reset).
